1.(v.) The act of removing all the vowels from a post on a message board. Usually done automatically by servers, but can be done by [mods] on a [forum]. The technique is used to prevent [trolls] from [trolling], as well as forcing disgruntled users to actually think out their responses instead of blindly spewing hate and/or [flaming] other people. The logic behind it is the fact that there is not a single word in the english language that contains no vowels when spelt correctly. Removing them will result in a sentence crumbling into a garble of random consonants.
> Troll: Hmm...I'll say that "anyone who posts on this forum is a fucking faggot!"
> Actual Post: nyn wh psts n ths frm s fkng fggt!
> Response 1: Huh???
> Response 2: Is this guy drunk or something?
> Response 3: STFU, idiot.
> Troll: Dammit, I got disenvoweled!
